"struggles with wave propagation because wave equations mathematically stiff, and standard AI models require many parameters/ data points, so extremely slow heavy, often requiring days of supercomputer time... overcome embedding phase/ amplitude physics into network's architecture... predicts wave variation rather than entire wave itself... coarse wave path model/ lets neural network fill in complex local interference patterns... energy exploration, medical Imaging, telecommunications"
